HARD CANDY ✩ Make Up For The Economically Challenged

So a while back at New York Fashion week I had the pleasure of being introduced to the new make up line by Hard Candy..

Now lets take a trip back in time..

The year is 1995. Owener Dineh Mohajer mixes up a shade of nail polish to match her blue shoes. She gets compliments from everybody. Next thing you know she is selling at Fred Segal.

Cut to: The awesome Alicia Silverstone is on David Letterman with bright blue nails. She says's the words "Sky by Hard Candy" and boom a 10 million dollar a year empire is born. Oh the power of the boob tube...and yes I got all that info from Wikipedia..and yes I thought it was super cool.

Cut to the year 2009..Hard Candy is revamped... and partners up with Walmart to create the amazingness we have in the year 2011..

Cut to: Last month when the awesome folks at Hard Candy sent little ole me some goodies to try out.. Yay!

I really like this brand.. For it not to be a specialty high end brand they sure did do a fantastic job of making you forget that. The packaging is super cool..and the make up is great.

I adore all the products. My absolute fav so far is the Stroke of Gorgeous Felt tip Liner. I am a bit obsessed with cat eyes lately and this liner not only makes it super simple.. but does not budge. Take that unsteady hands!
